SAME WAY HERE.

Say, boys, isn't it funny, very funny, to
hear the Websterian headed editors of the
Sentinel ask to be allowed to keep the re-
publicans posted? Well, it is wonderful
what effect well developed case of big
head will have on some people. Not con-
tent with running the democratic politics
OF this county before hardly any knew
they were here; next wanting to run the
politics of the land and Judicial districts
and read out of the party, Judge John
Martin, of state and national democratic
fame, they now want to run the republi-
can party. This is not much in such q
short time, and we may expect more. Still
when we come to think of their coalition
with some republicans in this county, it is
hardly in keeping with their profession.
even for the purpose of gaining an Office,
no matter what may be said of the repub-
Icsns who make the dirty alliance. But
we will wait and see how they run the re-
publican party. Selah!INess City
Nexy.
It is the same way here. The constant
ly accelerated down-hill momentum of the
brute who thinks he runs Democratic
organ in Wa-Keeney is the result of his
attempting to run both political parties in
this county before he had lived here to
exceed six weeks. # be has not learned
that such crazy oficiousness out here
does not pay-well We shall not be sur
prised. Nobody with q head balanced
better than that of jungle chimpanzee
would have undertaken such a career.

AN INQUIRY FROM ILLINOIS.

-
A gentleman living at Galva, ILL.,, and
who has been reader of the World,
writes, under date of Aug. %:
DEAR SIR--Enclosed find newspaper
clipping. How much truth does it con-
tain as regards Trego county, I feel
somewhat interested, as own land there
which expect to improve and occupy in
in the near future.
This portion of Illinois has nothing to
boast Of over other drouth-stricken sec
tons. The ground has not been thor
oughly wet for nearly two years. Grain
will harvest only about half crop, and
hay not fourth. Cattle are being ship
ped to Nebraska and other points to win
ter. Have seen none Of those return emil
grants.
Send World for amount of postal note
enclosed.
The clippings to which our correspond
ent calls our attention is taken from the
Peoria Saturday Eyeni.g Call. II talks
for Illinois, and somewhat against the
country farther to the west. All in all, it
does not say too much for Illinois, but it
does injustice to Kansas. and perhaps to
Nebraska, Colorado and Dakota. The
Cell article, summed up briefly, seeks to
make these points: --@s - :
That 1888 win be . booming year for
Illinois.
That the drouth Of this year has struck
western emigration terrible blow.
That a comparison of Illinois crops
this year with those in northern Kansas
is decidedly in favor Of Illinois.
That hundreds of farmers in the newer
states, finding themselves unable to make
the second payment on their land, and
becoming disguised and disheartened
with their western experience. will move
back to the places whence they came.
That the emigrants now returning COM
pose but ripple OF the tide that is to fol-
low.
That the time is not car distant when
illinois will contain and support popula-
ton Of 10.O00. 900 without crowding.
Our County Fair" article in last
weeks issue, contains the gist 1t our
views on the subject which the Cali meats
Tho notion Of that paper concerning any
wholesale exodus Of the farmers Of Kan
eas back east is erroneous. While Kan
sans may not have pnospered this year as
they had anticipated, they are reading
people, and possess sharpness OF vision
eniscient to warn them not to 60 from
this to . less fortunate state for relief.

An Unfortunate Affair.

A difficulty occurred last night between
Mr. w J. 10th and DR.. c. K Gardner.
1t grew out of some remarks alleged to
have been made by the latter in refer
ence to the late Mrs. 10th. Mr.. 10th
demanded written retracton which
DR.. Gardner declined to give, and was as
saulted by the former. As the public has
doubtless had enough of this unfortunate
affair the TINES declines to enlarge or
dwell upon it. Mr.. 10th surrendered
himself at the Third police station. All
the facts both in reference to the alleged
remarks and the subsequent assault will
be brought out in the Police Court to-
day

New York Stock Market.
REVIEW.

NEW YORK. March 16.-London was
quite considerable buyer this morning and
their quotations came considerably above
ours at the close of busigess yesterday, but
this market, after opening firm fell off again,
thus giving another demonstration Of the
absence of all public sympathy in stock
speculation. At the same time the under
tone is not weak and if some buying move
ments would set in, we believe that an out
side interest might be speedily created, and
bring with ii a higher level of values. The
afternoon was a very dull one and looks TO
us as if it was waiting for the outcome of the
Baltimore and Ohio deal which well-informed
parties still expect to be carried through. The
closing was steady; money 5 and per cent.

REVIEW.

The wheat market has ruled rather dull
to-day and on the whole easier. The feeling
was bearish, but the volume oftrading com
pared with yesterday was quite small, the
deal being a scalpng one throughout. Open
ing was steady at Sll May, and market sold
gradually down 10 sol, rallied and sold up
to SO, but again broke off and close is about
medium figures. The cables to-day were de-
pressed, and unless they strengthen the
market has absolutelyno support, as receipts
are heavier and export trade small
Corn exceedingly dull and steady and
market was featureless.
Provisions quiet and easy, but trading not
very heavy.

Fanny Davenport as "Fedora."

This well-established Richmond fav
orite opens tomorrow night at the
theatre in Sardou's great play Fedora.
Neither the play nor Fanny Davenport
need any extended mention. Fedora
is one of the greatest of modern plays,
and Miss Davenport is one of its greatest
opponents. The sale of seats began yes
terday. Mrs. Powell has been at CON
siderable expense to make this engage
ment, and it is hoped her efforts to please
will be well rewarded. Fanny Daven-
port is to-day in the first rank Of
American actresses, and such another
opportunity of witnessing perfect per-
formances may not occur this season.

The crowded state Of our columns this
morning must be the apology for the

cry member of the company was capital,

md the company are confidently recon-
nended as being in every way worthy of
